Book Reviews of Spelling Bee Brainiac: 600 Spelling Challenges for Word Amateurs and Experts Ages 10 and Up (Kaplan Brainiac)

Book Review: Brainiac could be more "brainy"
Summary: 2 Stars

I purchased this product to use with my students at school but have encountered the following deficiency:

While the choice of words is good, this kit could be MORE helpful if the correct pronunciation of the words was included on the same card (and not just the syllabic divisions). Often the person who helps the studying speller with these words is less familiar with them than the speller. I was constantly asked, "How do you say this?" instead of giving the students their own ability to study among themselves.

(Any hope this will be corrected?)
